Maximum energy efficiency
for corrugated board production

One mesh. two functions.

The innovative new BLUEBACKER process belt for corrugated board applications employs a mesh technology with resistant and open mesh design. It helps secure more efficiency during the corrugated board production and is used as both as a top and lower belt.

Powered by CONDUCTO® technology

Constant electrostatic discharge – this prevents the corrugated board from sticking.

Transport / traction layer made from staple fiber yarn and aramid

Ensures reliable grip of the corrugated board. Abrasion problems are prevented, what results in a long service life.

Carrier fabric made of monofilaments

Any risk of belt elongation is prevented throughout the entire service life. A high degree of cross stability is guaranteed.

lower belt

uncoated
and coated

The lower belt comes with CONDUCTO® technology as standard that prevents the corrugated board from sticking. Any risk of fire can therefore be minimized.

uncoated

The uncoated lower belt is universally suited to all corrugated board production systems. It can also be used at all production speeds.

coated

The special, tried-and-tested silicone coating significantly increases paper grip. The belt is therefore ideal for use with heavy grammatures and smooth surface papers.
